Gavin’s not doing good tonight

Unfortunately, Gavin is having a really rough night. He’s not been able to fall asleep because he’s not feeling well. The poor kid is battling tummy issues once again. He came downstairs a couple of times because his stomach hurt and he felt like he was going to vomit.

I wish I knew what was going on because he’s absolutely miserable.

The only thing we can do is give him a Zofran and hope that eliminates the nausea. I’m not sure what’s causing this but it’s happening quite a bit over the last week or so.

I don’t know if he’s dealing with a stomach bug or if it’s something he’s eating.

Part of my concern is that I never got his lab results from Friday. I have no idea what his numbers are. Should we be worried? Do we just manage the symptoms? If his numbers are low again, this is a big problem. If he’s just dealing with a tummy bug and his numbers are fine, then we don’t really need to worry.

Okay, that sucks. It means they are also baffled. Somehow I always feel better when my medical people can at least guide me to solutions or give options. Poor Gavin.
